She seems to have turned the corner. Left the PICU and went to a (hopefully) short term rehabilitation center. She seems alright.

My brother and my nephews and I spent the weekend at her house in New Jersey, to be closer to her and clean up her house a little before she gets home.

The Woman has too many sheets by far; sheets to house me, my brothers, my nephews, and a small army of children I haven't had. She has far more sheets than beds. The ratio of sheets to beds might be 8:1.

Regardless, thank you for your prayers. They seemed to work, although i also got prayers from my AA group, so maybe their prayers worked. Hard to tell who God listens to nowadays.

My mom seems to be getting better. I don't want her to live forever, I just want her to be happy while she lives.

Thank you for your prayers.

I got a buddy in the hospital with fucking sepsis. He's been in there for 5 days and his mom has been by side the whole time. Even thru her birthday and anniversary. His dad just goes fishing. Take care of your mom. She's the only person that truly loves you unconditionally

That's her baby boy. Even if he's fifty. Dad has a different way to cope, doesn't know how to deal with his son possibly dying. God bless your buddy and his parents.

That's wonderful news! Here's to her full recovery! <lift's morning coffee cup>

My mom was a frugal shopper and it seems her weakness was buying towels, sheets, pillowcases etc on sale. After she passed away I found so many of them still in their original packaging with unreal pricetags compared to present day pricing, multiple lifetimes supply, made in USA. I will never need to buy any of these things in my lifetime.

Seriously, why are moms like this? She could have clean sheets for a small army, apparently she hasn't read the 3rd Amendment.

Moms just do it. I actually went through about 3 years ago the towel and linen closet. I took out an entire garbage bag worth of sheets and brought them to the donation center. And there's still plenty left.

Humane societies need this sort of stuff; donation centers resell items at near retail prices instead of prices the truly poor and needy can afford.

They can always get used, never go bad. Everyone needs them. IDK why, but it's an affordable habit that seemed to give my frugal mom great joy to participate in. She and her sister often used to shop the "big" stores when my family visited them ... Arlens, Mammoth Mart, K-Mart, Woolworth's, McLellans, Ames and many others from that bygone era.

It takes every ounce of my being to not do this. But when I own a house, especially if it's a large one, it will be hard to say no to a good deal. Gotta be the best host to the most possible amount of people. Ideally, family and friends not randoms.

For the sake of your health and your mothers recovery, look into Aajonus Vonderplanitz diet. Read the book "Spear of Aajonus" and--if you want to get technical--"Bechamp or Pasteur" by Ethel D. Humes.

All the best.

Have to be careful with raw diets and elderly digestion.
